Ione comes over as soon as she sees him.
"Keltham, advisory," Ione says quietly, "the war was going okay and it's still going okay and Cheliax is still going to win in the end, this sort of thing happens during a war, but Cheliax lost one of its eighth-circles last night, soul-trapped. Name was Delmus. Nidal can't destroy his soul and especially not with their god sealed but he is still not likely to come out of it okay or, functioning, it's a situation where when Cheliax finishes the war and frees him, he goes to Hell, not back to life. Sevar didn't know Delmus at all well but she knew him, he was an instructor for one of her classes a long time ago. I - don't think I'd actually advise that you try to comfort her about it, unless she asks, there's too much you don't - get, yet."
